[TheFlandrien]

When will Top Gear produce a decent car test of everyday cars such as Mercedes B class, Volvo S60, Volkswagen Beetle ?

That would make sense!

[okgo1211]

@TheFlandrien noone cares about crap like that

[BenHimes]

@TheFlandrien When you run the BBC.

[mawriz]

10 points for Gryffindor!

[SolitudeNaSkellig]

He is one of the best Irish actors out there.

[SolitudeNaSkellig]

@SolitudeNaSkellig

And he is NOT BRITISH.

[morchedrid]

@SolitudeNaSkellig lol are you seriously commenting on your self there, mate?

[boruelo]

[scotfreak]

[garion333]

@scotfreak 2002, I believe.

[alexkvaskov]

HALRIOUS Jeremy hooting at 5:26

[technoandrew]

What happened to 3/4 the audience?

[alexkvaskov]

@technoandrew This was from the very first few months of Topgear on air, it was no where near as popular as today

[NinjaCameraman]

@alexkvaskov Even worse, this is the first series of the "new" Top Gear, the old version of which died a horrible death of boringness before it was revived.

[alexkvaskov]

@NinjaCameraman Well let's be grateful it garnered more and more attention over the next couple of series

[meepenator3]

Top gear sent me here. Wait a minute.

[TheLurker1993]

@JealY666 Didnt you know that Michael Gambon can travel through time?

[Metrodfusion]

isnt it the last corner?

[sufiyankhan123456]

pause at 0:00

[VampirateBloodR8]

My mobile phone ringing.

[Chigokai1080]

I love his voice and his laugh!

[Andrzej14414]

he played dumbledore? fuck me. He looked better witch a beard :>

[Blink9699]

Press 3 to see Michael Gambon's troll face.

[thewickedjester000]

Weird hearing that voice without the long hair, long beard and half-moon glasses..

[qwerty22198]

@thewickedjester000 i know right

[grisznik]

@thewickedjester000

If you were J.K. Rowling, you'd've written 'half-moon spectacles' ;)

[thewickedjester000]

@grisznik but I'm not J.K Rowling right??

[grisznik]

@thewickedjester000

Sure, I know. I'm just so used to Dumbledore beeing described as a man with half-moon spectacles not glasses. anyway, as someone pointed out correctly, this isn't Dumbledore but Michael Gambon.

And he's awesome :)

[LOLWTFBBQsaucy]

@thewickedjester000 Actually it's not weird at all if you have any knowledge of Gambon's very long career, but you're probably a 12 year old that knows him only from Potter.

[StelenaVD]

@thewickedjester000 It's the only thing I kept thinking of throughout the whole interview, I half expected Dan to show up or something.

[denNicola]

Brian Johnson went full on two wheels and didn't get a corner named after him although his two wheel drive was far more spectacular

[TheMuZzLoD92]

@denNicola was that the guy when they first got the kia on the open day when hamster wwas looking forward to meeting angalina jolie ive been looking for tthat one

[Charbyzic]

ALI G

[TheRevolutionChill]

the stig is BEN COLLINS



[hejjagedu]

@TheRevolutionChill was

[jazmyn594]

@TheRevolutionChill The stig WAS been collins.

[seth009eg]

Gambon's not happy with that time at all :)

[jazmyn594]

Loads of people have done that on corners, but only he gets it named after him. Because he was in Harry Potter. <3

[SyraeFaileas]

@jazmyn594 More like... this was in series 1, so he was the first one to nearly roll it.

[frankie440mopar]

thats the coolest way to ever make a left corner :D

[maxredbin]

STOP with da damn fuji/bungee ad on EVERY F***** vid ........God

[thedekutree]

@maxredbin Agreed!! Especially considering it means the BBC is taking money from licence payers and advertising, which isn't allowed. I don't know the specifics.

[sandningga]

its called a SEXTANT jeremy!!

[StuPadazzo]

...until Tom Cruise hit this track. His near roll-over was MUCH more dramatic on the very same corner.

[BellatrixTesla]

Wait, isn't Gambons corner the last turn of the lap?

[jamesywelham]

@BellatrixTesla Yeah it is

[muziqfreek]

@BellatrixTesla - Yup it certainly is - funnily enough the "second to last corner" is actually called the "second to last corner" hahaah

[sondano]

Yes! His haircut is Great Britain in a nutshell.

[chanel2711]

did maggie smith ever go on top gear?? :D love to see that!

[samsungmartiHKM]

He says the 348 is 'shocking', I guess either by modern standards or compared to other ferrari's, but in its day it appears as though he liked it, and Jason Dawe recommended it.

?v=ukFXf9FwDaM

[factman147]

thums up if the topgear website sent u here

[jimy6189]

i think the corner should be renamed after Tom Cruise, his two wheeler was epic!

[pyromcr]

should be renamed the cruise corner...

[billyvesar]

5:25 Doggy laughing!

[MultiTopgearfan]

40 people work for Suzuki

[illegalmachine]

Jeremy has not aged well.

[daniel55645]

@illegalmachine how has he not

[illegalmachine]

@daniel55645 He's only 50 years old, and he doesnt look a day over 65. In this video (shot in 2002) to today, he looks like he's aged 20 years.

I'm going to take cigarettes for 1000, Alex.

[illegalmachine]

It amazes me how HORRIBLE Jeremy has aged. Wow.

[DeltaPhi79]

DUMBLEDORE. O_O I DIDN'T KNOW!!! XD

[stevebloodymckenna]

Brilliant Irish actor!

[dhanabandot]

jeremy is sitting on a lotus carlton front seat. that thing isnt cheap

[pearljaime2]

@dhanabandot Can't believe I hand't seen that before, my parents had an Opel/Vauxhall/Chevrolet Omega/Carlton and it had the same seats up front, except not in leather. Good times.

[dhanabandot]

@pearljaime2 haha ya i know right? not so many people know this, only the one who has the car knows. i have one so i know. :)

[Selkie15]

"WHOO- HOO-HOO-HOO-HAARR-HAR-ARF-ARF!­"

[MrBazpoker]

Jeremy barked like a dog when watching gambon drive the gambon corner!

[GunsNRoses581]

hahaha. Jeremy's laugh after gambon did that corner.

[HermanTheNinja]

michael gambon....legend.....jezza's always a brilliant breath of fresh air flying in the face of PC thuggery lol, if only there where more :)

[1964mm]

How come Tom Cruise didn't have one named after him, he got on 2 wheels and held it for almost 2 seconds

[shawnej454]

@1964mm Tom Cruise is a fag. Michael Gambon is Dumbledore.

[1964mm]

@shawnej454 Can't argue with that.. : /

[evertimely]

@1964mm Tom Cruise didn't have a corner named after him because it came as no surprise to anyone that he was unbalanced.

[ifba100]

whoa so this is what old topgear studio looks like!!!!

tom cruise loves this guy!

[TheOnlyArtifex]

Pause at 6:50 and a half, be prepared to laugh.

[magicah2011]

Ho Is The First One In This SHIT !!

[lollipopraindrops]

Tom cruise got more air

[AllieCat22481]

DUMBLEDORE! :D

[Maldor20]

@AllieCat22481 KAZRAN!!! ^_^

[toonarmy4ever1021]

seen how small the board is

[mylife1221]

Mesh! 8 years ago :O

[RincewindsHat66]

The best part is that he's doing the lap in a suit and tie.

[OMGITBELIAN]

@RincewindsHat66 Nah, the best part is the thumbs-up he throws to the camera after sending that little car flying :)

[nadiyahak]

i love how casually he says, "i feigned a heart attack."

[jowjowjow15]

note to uploader. Irish, not british.

[laz79]

@jowjowjow15 - Think you should check your facts before posting mate - Although born in Cabra, Dublin, he is a registered British citizen since the 1950's - thats why he has an actual knighthood rather than an honorary knighthood.

[jowjowjow15]

@laz79 I appreciate the polite correction. Thank you, my friend.

[FrozenBlaze]

If he were Dumbledore and not a muggle, he would have gotten around the track in 0:00:001 seconds.

Unless using magic is cheating.

[kingnadz]

@FrozenBlaze nt funny -.-

[FrozenBlaze]

@kingnadz

But your face is. It's so deformed. LoL.

[AlreadyGoth]

lmao, i can just imagine Michael playing Dumbledore in this :') <3

[LongRangeBullet]

The corner should be renamed the Cruise corner.

[boomstick900]

@LongRangeBullet yeah really

[buffynum1]

@LongRangeBullet Meh. Even if it should be, Micheal Gambon is epic and should be named after him. :)

[TurkishRapTube]

WUT HOLY FUUK? 2002 0.O THAT CAN'T BE D:

[kingnadz]

@TurkishRapTube It wasnt posted in 2002. It broadcasted on tv in 2002

[Trouble4u99]

[iminent=bWvhJ9gUWfOB] LOL first youtube video ever! [iminent rb=anim][iminent wave]lol[/wave][/rb]

[RiHaCkO]

OMG! "Release: December 08, 2002" Damn!

[Bonobo1974]

Love the thumbs up @ 6:10

[benry007]

i was expecting more

[SurfinBird1975]

at 5:22 you can watch the Gambon corner beeing born

[Elzibubb]

Notice the Gryffindor tie :)

[JealY666]

@Elzibubb Yeah, a "Gryffindor" tie 2 years before he was cast as Dumbledore...

[murf69]

@JealY666 You are correct sir.

[bigboieatems]

@Elzibubb this was before he was dumbledore, the old guy still was so... it's just a tie

[Meovah]

@bigboieatems I think Elzibubb got that. It's just a funny coincidence :)

[RangasRule14]

DUMBLEDORE! :P

[marlo916]

rip professor dumbledor 

[DrStrangefate]

Michael Gambon is pure class, but also incredibly funny on the set (from what his colleagues have said)

A spectacular actor and an amazing voice (that i wish to have)

And to add to that, a madman behind the wheel!!

Pure awesomeness.

[bluechao]

Gambon comes off so calm and even but he really basically a mad man. Gotta love it.

[TezzaMcJ]

this corner should now be called cruise

[crazymonkeyninjas1]

0:01 2 miss ad

[primalregrets]

it's dumbledore

[muddd001]

0.01 to miss advert

[joevictor53]

@muddd001 #FAIL You have to use a colon instead of a full stop. Like this: 0:01

[MrSpyKload]

Cant wait to drive this track in GT5

[miankd]

Gambon hit that

[crazysteve1986]

its not the 2nd to last corner, its the last corner.

someone from top gear doesnt even know the track!

[hardstyledrifta]

Tom Cruise OWNED Gambon.

Sad, but true.

[elmataplata]

@hardstyledrifta

they should rename it to cruise corner

[Bones12x2]

@elmataplata

They should...but then I would projectile vomit once every episode.

[DrStrangefate]

@hardstyledrifta

considering the age difference?

Im not impressed

[hardstyledrifta]

@DrStrangefate Good point, didn't consider the age difference, but Cruise was still epic.

[georgia00ful]

DUMBLEDORE. that is all.

[EenvoudigGek]

@georgia00ful

...I liked the previous Dumbledore better

[OlleRK92]

Tom Cruise was more badass on that corner...

[jozef97]

He got a corner named after him... for that? lol

[Fenyx6]

@jozef97 yeah i think thats the most drama they got on the track in the first few seasons of top gear.

[MrDanman84]

2:03 worlds funniest laugh!

[xSTONEYx187x]

@MrGuyfromcuba Don't be so ignorant. Republic of Ireland is NOT part if Britain you fool,I should know, Im Irish.

[NeXxX17]

He's waaaaaaaaay to fast to be an old version of James May

[ethownzbh]

@NeXxX17 and way to cool
